Mission to Mars - review by Vijaya Schartz
Watched Mission to Mars on the Syfy channel Saturday, in preparation for the new Matt Damon movie coming out later this year titled The Martian. Mission to Mars was such an excellent movie, I'm not sure another movie on the same theme of rescuing a stranded astronaut on mars could pack more drama.
Great acting with Gary Sinise and Tim Robbins as principal actors, and a very talented cast all around. Brian de Palma gives us not only drama, but accurate science, deep characters, and even women and romance.
This is not a romance by any means. Too much happens to allow for a happily ever after, but there is some dancing and necking in zero gravity, and there is a couple in love among the crew. Other characters have known love, lost their loved one, or have a family. Love is part of their lives. After working together for many months, they are also close friends.
There are some tense moments, and heroic, selfless acts, even self-sacrifice. These astronauts are definitely heroes.
I particularly liked the Stanley Kubric feel, and the great reveal of the face on Mars, after it sheds the dirt and the dust. Cool alien.
The technology was believable, from the habitat pods to the greenhouse, to the orbiter.
As we speak of a space program again, this movie makes it look more possible and realistic, with its dangers and its possible rewards "Stepping on a new world and looking beyond to other worlds to explore."
In the meantime, you can read my space exploration novel NOAH'S ARK. This planet is much farther off, set in a farther future, with a far more sophisticated ship.

NOAH'S ARK by Vijaya Schartz
When Trixie's starfreighter,
Noah's Ark, drops out of jump space in an uncharted part of the
universe, she believes the M-class planet on her viewer
represents hope and salvation for her motley crew and the
ragtag settlers aboard her ship.
Kostas, ex Space Marine, the
expert survivalist recruited for this expedition, doesn't
believe in coincidences, and knows that when something looks too
good to be true, it usually is.
Everyone on this voyage to seed a
new planet with life, is running from something, and harbors
dangerous secrets... including Trixie, who vowed to never let a
man control her life again.
As for
Kostas, he would get lynched on the spot if anyone suspected who
he really is.
But on this seemingly
abandoned planet, others are watching, herding them for evil
purposes... And when the truth emerges and secrets unravel,
Trixie and Kostas will have to fight for survival, for freedom,
and for the right to love...
"Schartz pens a
suspenseful prequel to her futuristic series, 'Chronicles of
Kassouk' with 'Noah's Ark.' Filled with action, adventure,
greed, betrayal, and love... Having read the other books in the
series, I was anxiously awaiting the prequel and Schartz
delivers. She engages the reader right from the opening. Her
writing style is crisp and easy to read. Schartz excels at world
building as she layers the humans' discoveries starting with the
citadel, then the Godds, and then tossing in the Zerkers. The
dialogue adds a rich authenticity to the story. It's the little
touches which bring the humanity into the story from Viking the
cat to Tabor's horseback riding lessons."
